  https://www.istudy-china.com/      Related What are the advantages and disadvantages studying in China? Hello! My name is Clara and I am a former student of University of Nottingham Ningbo. I was an exchange student and lived in Ningbo for several months. So, I learned plenty of things. Even though, I bring with me positive memories, I also carry some downsides. China is a very complex country. It’s like going on a boat on a peacuful river and occasionaly having to dodge the obstacles in your way. Sometimes it’s just a rock and sometimes it’s a big current. Along with this metaphore, I have an interesting story that happened in Guillin. We were riding it’s famous river, going along the water in a bambu boat. When suddenly, another boat came too close to us. The driver dodge the boat but one of our chairs, fell in the water.

The qualities of Chinese universities varies greatly, and i think you should check which university you would like to attend. For example, one of my friend in Jiaotong University says that she need to do a lot of research and homework in her spare time, and the workload is almost as heavy as those US top universities. However, another guy in a private university (p.s:private universities are usually not good ranking ones, and most Shanghai parents consider them backups to ensure that their kids' college degree.) says that he often cut classes in order to play Dota in the dorm. I believe that you should choose top universities like Jiaotong, Fudan, Tongji if you want to go Shanghai, or Tsinghua, Peking in Beijing.
